This dish comes together very simply. Let’s break it down! First, grate the zucchini. Zucchini holds a lot of excess water so be sure to add it to a cheesecloth or clean dish towel and squeeze the water out. Grate carrots and chop the broccoli, scallions, chives and parsley. Mix together. In a separate bowl, whisk together the spices and flour along with the plant milk. Add this mixture to the chopped veggies and fry until crisp! Whip up a quick fresh tzatziki sauce (recipe linked below) and serve. Simple yet so delicious!
